Each year, NH Listens hosts events throughout New Hampshire. These online and in-person events range from engaging on statewide policy issues, supporting local community-led initiatives, and our own series of workshops for strengthening skills for bridge builders — facilitation, connection across differences, and sticking with tough conversations. We support a growing network of New Hampshire's skilled facilitators.
Campus Listeners
Controversy can be unsettling, especially during protests or demonstrations. Campus Listeners attend these events to engage in conversations and provide a space for people to express their views. Working alongside UNH Police and Peacekeepers, Campus Listeners are trained in advance and collaborate closely with New Hampshire Listens Staff.
